Defining Moments Interdisciplinary Project

Spring 2021 ARC/IDE 4233  Computer Projects In Design
PRESERVING THE HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PRESENT FOR THE FUTURE
Professor John Bagarozy
Project: Interdisciplinary Defining Moments

      “In this moment you are living through a unique point in history and can share an experience that no one else can, in a way that no one can, through various artistic expressions. Whether you are affected by the issues involving the pandemic, human rights, political, economic, social, global, or other personal circumstances - you are living during a unique time in history.”
      In this computer design project, students were required to create three patterns on a grid used to define space. The three boards display three-dimensional drawings based on architecture and nature. In part two of this assignment, students used their grid/patterns to define space in multiple disciplines of history, English, music, art, and dance. The final boards displayed spatial decisions using the grid/pattern and program.
Preliminary Interdisciplinary Research 
Preliminary Pattern/Design Inspiration Sketches
Assignment 03 Part 01
Rhino Pattern/Design Diagraming 
Each student was tasked with creating three patterns based on an underlying grid that is used to define space. Each grid pattern was required to take a unique approach to understanding the formation of space. The underlying grid pattern is formed based on points and lines with the ability to be expanded upon (or repeated). The spaces formed by the grid create spaces of differing size and shape. In our world, there are many examples of pattern in nature that can be referenced as a starting point. The three-dimensional, space defining elements within the grid are architectural in nature (i.e. planes, walls, columns, etc.).
Assignment 03 Part 02
Interdisciplinary Space Design 
Using the grid/patterns students created in part 01, space is defined in regards to the multiple disciplines we have studied (history, english, music, art, and dance). Students took into account how these spaces will be used and what types of events will take place in them (i.e. art display, musical performance, etc.).
Final Iteration Assignment 03 Part 03 Coming Soon...
